[from Wembley Park, London, UK] she was
the rapper I’d come to see (part of the British grime scene) and she wasn’t
quite what I expected – I pictured a wannabe type gangster girl, more pretty
than tough, but she was far more ‘legit’ than the two female rappers before her:
small intense-looking white girl in baggy clothes, baseball cap, snarly
rapping, etc. - you can’t help but be totally sucked into her world:
Eminem-like phrasing and attitude, cockney accent, and total stage dynamism and
mastery – lots of silly posturing but I loved her – she could rap fast and plays
in interesting twists with her words and her voice - her DJ samples a lot,
including American music, and can go from kooky noises to harder synth walls -
am currently considering my rapper potential (Photo courtesy of https://www.flickr.com/photos/danielboczarski/3405872914)
